(All day): Giving Tuesday

(All day)
Nov 27

Giving Tuesday is a global, online event celebrated on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving (November 27) that kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving: a movement that celebrates and supports giving and philanthropy.

Created in 2012 by the team at the Belfer Center for Innovation & Social Impact at the 92nd Street Y—a cultural center in New York City that brings people together around the value giving back—Giving Tuesday connects diverse groups of individuals, communities and organizations around the world for one common purpose: to celebrate and encourage giving. Over 40,000 organizations including small businesses, nonprofits, government agencies and major corporations in 71 countries have joined the Giving Tuesday movement.

10:00 am: Knitting


Nov 29

Every week, our knitters gather to share their purls of wisdom and get in the loop on each other’s latest project, and usually end up in stitches spinning yarns. Whether you knit for pleasure, distraction or just practical economics, or you’ve never done it before and want to give it a try, there’s always room for another loom. Learn, refine, or teach a skill that makes your gift-giving budget lighter weight or support a student-led altruistic project like knitting chemo caps, beanies for babies, lap blankets or other creative applications.
